The KitchenAid® PRO LINE™ Series Chef’s Blender and  
Bar Blender can be summed up in a word: performance. The  
rugged, commercial-quality design will satisfy the most  
demanding home chef.  
Start with the die-cast metal base – it stands up to the most  
intensive use while providing incredible stability. Inside the base  
is a 21,000 rpm motor that generates more than 1 peak  
horsepower. It thoroughly blends frozen drinks and purées  
sauces and soups in about 20 seconds.  
Above the base, you’ll find a 48 oz. stainless steel or  
polycarbonate jar. The blade assembly and seals are built into  
the jar for water-tight performance, and the patented, one-piece  
stainless steel blade rides on ball bearings for maximum efficiency.  
Performance demands precise control, so the Chef’s Blender has three blending speeds and a Pulse  
feature for extraordinary versatility. The Bar Blender combines high-speed operation optimized for  
blending frozen drinks and crushing ice with a low-speed Pulse mode that offers additional flexibility  
and control.  
Advanced electronics provide capabilities not found in most blenders. An electronic mixing sensor  
automatically adjusts power to compensate for light or heavy ingredients. The Step Start™ feature  
reduces splattering by starting the blender slowly and then quickly stepping up to the selected speed.  
The KitchenAid® PRO LINE™ Series: commercial quality for the discriminating home chef. From the  
company distinguished by its legendary craftsmanship.

48 oz. Clear Polycarbonate or Stainless Steel Jar  
The 6-cup (48 oz.) jars are dishwasher-safe. Each features a  
comfortable handle. The polycarbonate jar includes a durable,  
soft-grip handle covering for additional comfort. The jar collar,  
blade assembly, and seals are built into the jar for strength,  
durability, and water-tight performance.  
On/Off/Pulse Switch  
Heavy-duty toggle switch turns the blender on and  
off. Blender can be pulsed by pressing the switch  
down momentarily. When pulsed, the blender  
operates at low speed for maximum control.

soups to blending frozen drinks. Indicator lights  
show the speed selected.  
Patented One-Piece Blade  
Extra-thick, corrosion-resistant stainless steel blade  
has sharpened edges and high blade angles for  
extreme performance and long life. The blade is  
specially balanced to reduce vibration and minimize  
bearing wear. The all stainless steel blade assembly includes ball  
bearings for maximum efficiency and durability.  
Single Speed Operation (Bar Blender only)  
The Bar Blender’s single speed is optimized for  
quickly blending frozen drinks and crushing ice. To  
produce similar results with the Chef’s Blender, use  
the High speed setting.  
Jar Lid with Removable 2 oz. Ingredient Cap  
Jar lid provides a strong seal, yet is easy to  
remove. The lid’s convenient ingredient cap makes  
adding ingredients to the blender easy. With 1 and  
2 ounce volume lines, the cap doubles as a handy  
measuring cup.  
One-Step Operation  
Move the on/off/pulse switch to “On” or “Pulse”, and the blender  
starts immediately. The Chef’s Blender automatically starts at the  
Low speed setting; the Bar Blender will operate at high speed in  
the “On” position or low speed in the “Pulse” position. To start  
the Chef’s Blender at the Medium or High speed settings, turn on  
the blender while pressing the desired speed selection button.  
Scalloped Inner Jar Collar and Base

TROUBLESHOOTING  
– The blender may be overheated. If the motor exceeds a certain  
If the blender does not operate when switched on:  
temperature, the thermal safeguard will engage to prevent  
damage. This may happen when blending multiple jars of  
heavy ingredients for a prolonged period. Move the  
On/Off/Pulse Switch to the “Off” position. The thermal  
safeguard will prevent the blender from running until it is cool  
enough to operate safely. Let the blender cool for 30 minutes,  
then resume blending. If the blender does not start, move the  
On/Off/Pulse Switch back to the “Off” position and let the  
blender cool for an additional 30 minutes.  
– Check to see if the blender is plugged into a grounded  
3 prong outlet. If it is, unplug the blender, then plug it in to  
the same outlet again. If the blender still does not work,  
check the fuse or circuit breaker on the electrical circuit the  
blender is connected to and make sure the circuit is closed.  
– The blender may be jammed or overheated. Move the  
On/Off/Pulse Switch to the “Off” position and refer to the  
troubleshooting instructions in the remainder of this section.  
On the Chef’s Blender, the high speed  
indicator light will flash when the  
blender is overheated or jammed.  
If the blender stops while blending:  
– The blender may be jammed. If a foreign object or blender  
ingredients jam the blades, the blender will shut off to  
prevent damage to the motor. Move the On/Off/Pulse  
Switch to the “Off” position to reset the blender. Remove  
the jar from the base and free the blades by breaking-up  
or removing the contents at the bottom of the jar.  
– The blender may be overloaded. If the blender slows  
excessively when blending heavy ingredients, it will shut  
off to prevent damage. Move the On/Off/Pulse Switch to  
the “Off” position to reset the blender. Remove the jar  
from the base and divide the jar contents into smaller  
batches. Adding liquid to the jar may also reduce the load  
on the blender.  
On the Chef’s Blender, the high speed  
indicator light will flash when the  
blender is jammed or overheated.  
On the Chef’s Blender, the low speed  
indicator light will flash when the  
blender is overloaded.
